Combines Vibramat

Ham

A Vibramat is a strip of plasticised canvas material about 12 inches in width that lays flat on the table, immediately behind the cutterbar. It is attached to the knife by a plastic spine that is bolted to the knife by using a longer bolt every 12 inches or so along the sickle sections. It reciprocates with the knife action and provides a "live" area between the cutterbar and the table auger. My use of them has been when cutting VERY short barley. I mean short as when all you can get above the sickle is a head ( if you are lucky) I have no idea how they work in anythjing other than cereals. As I am in Australia i dont know where you'd get one, but I am still trying to find a pic for you Ham in Australia

We got ours from Neils Parts. They come in 30 foot lengths and you just cut them to size if need be. Cost about $500 I think.
